        you’ve ‘spent’ as much on books in five months as i have in, like, twenty years. but i don’t always actually check books out. i often just go there (it’s only a block away), grab a book, find a sofa to sit on, and read it… cover-to-cover, then put it back where i found it.

          Mmmh that sounds lovely but I unfortunately do not have that luxury as I do not live in the same town as my library.

      That’s kind of cool. I’d need to combine a lot of different sources to get a number, though. I use all of Libby and Hoopla from my library, a scribd subscription (sorry, everand, I guess now), Audible, and Apple Books to handle my audiobook needs (and more for ebooks, though I have less time for that).
